On the double page spread most of the page has been taken up by the image which the girl is tilted in a certain way, showing the whole top part of her body.

There isn’t that much information on the double page spread this is because, the owners of the magazine doesn’t want to make the costumers of the magazine to get bored, this is why they did not put much information on it and used the colours purple and white to make the magazine look appealing to the customers/audience of the magazine.
